What a Friend We Have in Jesus

Lyrics

[Verse 1] What a friend we have in Jesus All our sins and griefs to bear And what a privilege to carry Everything to God in prayer Oh what peace we often forfeit Oh what needless pain we bear All because we do not carry Everything to God in prayer [Verse 2] Have we trials and temptations Is there trouble anywhere We shall never be discouraged Take it to the Lord in prayer Can we find a friend so faithful Who will all our sorrows share Jesus knows our every weakness Take it to the Lord in prayer [Chorus] Precious Jesus Lord and friend I give everything to You Shelter Shepherd Savior King I give everything to You [Verse 3] Are we weak and heavy laden Cumbered with a load of care Precious Savior still our refuge Take it to the Lord in prayer Do thy friends despise forsake thee Take it to the Lord in prayer In His arms He'll take and shield thee Thou wilt find a solace there Thou wilt find a solace there [Chorus] Precious Jesus Lord and friend I give everything to You Shelter Shepherd Savior King I give everything to You
